Answer 1

I have not managed to solve the problem as the others who have responded, although I tried out everything that has been proposed. In the end it turned out that the server on which stood my DB is not updated phpMyAdmin since version 3.5.5, and is currently being used everywhere version 4.1.14 and it is a problem. The solution is to update your host phpMyAdmin or your own mySQL back to an earlier version in order to continue working on remote DB. You may need this knowledge in order to solve some doubts that have arisen. :)
